It's an audition though she needs to show every point that she can hit whether it's too much for that song or not she made it that way for a reason so they can see what she's really got
@@adriannesquivel2605 I completely agree I think what she did was amazing Im still upset she didn’t make it far! She was one of the best in this season.
i absolutely hate when these judges always try to change these peoples singing. she absolutely killed that- she absolutely knows how to use her voice if she’s able to control it willingly. her runs are going to get her somewhere and she is absolutely talented!!
They weren’t saying she couldn’t control her voice they were saying she doesn’t know how to USE it. A song with too many runs lacks direction and gets annoying. Sometimes it’s nice to just sing the note and leave the run for the end for something extra. They did acknowledge her talent :)
Their job is to literally judge singing, she was very talented, but she did have things that could be improved, they were just making her aware of that and giving her advice so chill 😑
Totally agree! Heather has a natural singing talent on par w/Mariah and Whitney, which Katy does not. Heather just needs good musical coaches to help her hone in her voice in the best way so that the composition of is more balanced when she sings a song. But haters gonna hate and Heather is a rare diamond in the rough just waiting to be fully discovered. She also seems like a girl with a beautiful soul. I just hope if she ever reaches the fame Katy Perry that she doesn’t loose her connection to what makes her seem so beautiful on the inside. I’m saying this not just based on this audition but following Heather on Tik Tok after watching the audition.
Well you'll have to get over it because she's right, her voice was stunning but uncontrolled, and Idk about you but I'd rather have someone tell me that so I can improve on it rather than not knowing and never having a future in singing.
@@themindgayer5367 it's not baby. when you say uncontrolled voice it's referred to a voice that does not have a good support, agility, breath control and that basically sounds tense because it's not controlled an OVERUSE of her vocal skills however is a the excessive amount of ornaments given to a melody with your voice go ask any vocal coach and don't even try to act as if u were one cause I know u ain't otherwise u wouldn't keep defending the misuse of that term
She was amazing 🤯 & didn’t deserve those comments from Katy, Could’ve been worded differently like be a little more free with yourself not so perfect or don’t over do it too much, but she was in no way dead
katy really told the whole truth and nothing but the truth, comparing to the guys. the girl’s singing was all over the place and her performance was really really tiring. while she has beautiful voice, just as katy said, she doesn’t know how to use it yet
I agree! I don’t think this girl is ALL frosting, but I do think she did far too many runs and frills, so I get what Katy meant. She just needs time to develop her voice more, but she is very good of course! It’s difficult to do runs like that!
@@sabrinam2393 no, she's trying to help her. Her comments were tough but needed. I would bet money that girl appreciated the tough love more than just endless praise
@@Josh-cn5yp the judge sounded horrible singing her own song IN A BATHROOM. Heather's voice is incredible. She made the song sound good. some crowds of people love to hear people express their vocal ability. That's what the judges forget. People like fantasia or Jennifer Hudson who have done these shows and gone on to have successful careers do the same thing and are praised for it.
She is there to show off her skills in a quite limited time and that is exactly what she is supposed to do and she did it so well I mean she she overdid some runs but come onnn how can you set yourself apart from the rest if you just sing regularly
This kid is going to be a bigger Star than Katy Perry - and I say that with the utmost respect for both of them. I’ve never heard someone have so much control of their voice. Wow!
What I'm really glad is her ability to hear their criticism because if you can't hear that you don't build. She's gonna go so far with that vocal range and her ability to grow ❤
Katy mad cause her cover was FIRE 🔥🔥🔥 so much better than the original. Her runs were smooth and played into the performance. This girl need to blow tf up cause her voice is amazing. Harleys In Hawaii was so so to me until I heard her sing it. Pop out sis cause you got it !!!!!!!
Katie: girl dont do my song better than me. Girl: *sings song* Katie: fuck 🥴 This girl was awesome. They critiqued her on her runs, but her voice is incredible.
all musicians know that adding too much runs and riffs isn’t pleasant. sing a straight note and save the riffs and runs for some body and climax to a song. the only time she sang a straight note was when she sang the D5
@@guinevere-ms.violet944 it was still a super dope version for what she was doing, and she had an oppotunity to display the total range and control over her voice. I wasmt mad at anything except at the end was a little too much sauce. To say that was "dead inside" was a little too harsh. We know she critiqued her that way cause it was her own song.
@@guinevere-ms.violet944 with all do respect I've never read the manual. I always thought music was art, art was personal and everyone was right. Fans/music lovers listen differently than musicians/players and THANK GOD for that!! Imagine telling Stevie WONDER to tone down the vocal gymnastics,. Absurd and asinine. Take care though
I think the cake and frosting metaphor was a really nice way of putting it and also the fact that Katy is giving good advice means she truly cares and can see this girl having a future in singing
She’s INCREDIBLY talented, love her voice and skill.. but as a rendition is all frosting no cake.. but so talented she’s incredible it’s not slamming her there but you have to leave people wanting more.
Katy is absolutely correct. Heather just didn't have that musicality. When you're as agile as her, you are very easily able to oversing and make the listener just not want to listen, and it just sounds too much. That's why musicality is important. But I think she deserved the Yes because she is definitely a great singer, and thru this competition, I hope she learned!
The girl was phenomenal with her voice. But I have to agree with the judges cuz presentation matters too. Katy was right. Her performance was all frosting. She added way too many runs. The high notes on the other hand tho😍
Katy’s not wrong. This girl has a great voice but she was shouting so much… and too many runs. It gets repetitive. That cake and frosting analogy was spot on.
Shes so good, and she definitely crammed alot into that little audition I dont think she was trying to do it "right" i think she knew she was all frosting. She proved she was able to do the hardest stuff, the basics will come easy to her. Once she realizes she can relax in between, shell be unstoppable
I agree with what the judges were tryin to say. Her voice is phenomenal! If she knew exactly where to put her runs and ease back on how many she gave. This girl would rule the world when it came to singing!
Katy really cut her down UNNECESSARILY! I think Katy was jealous because that girl did it BETTER. There was nothing “dead inside” about that girl and she was cake and frosting in MY opinion. Get over yourself Katy.
I completely agree with the judges. The runs are great but can be too much and annoying. Too much of a good thing is not always good. She has an amazing voice no doubt about that. Definitely loved her soulful version but Katy gave a great analogy about cake 😆😆 which was way accurate.
Katy Perry is too insecure. This girl killed it, and she didn't have a computerized autotones to asist her like most pop singers utilize. Bet?. Give me the version of Perry singing this pure vocals.
She has such a gorgeous voice and I think she has such an amazing, lovely range and I bet a lot of people are so jealous. However, I do agree with the judges. Too many runs and she hasn't got that full control in when to stop doing runs. I love runs and they're so mesmerising but then again I think there is a limit in runs. This is a personal opinion!! :)
I believe she did all of the runs during her audition to show the judges what she could do-showcase her talent. It may have been a little much but she’s good. Katy was threatened-😂😂
A crazy amount of runs! She doesn’t have a great timbre but she has amazing control over her voice. Technically she is almost perfect, she is one of the best vocalists but she is a quite mediocer singer (she lacks soul). Being a vocal control freak, that’s the problem. Imperfections are beautiful. It’s difficult to achieve a blending of technique and soul in singing, but a truly intelligent human being knows how to control the notes and to let himself go into imperfections.
I think that the problem with shows like this, people have the skill but not the soul. But I love how respectful the judges were. Very professional. No bullying or anything. Good for them
I love how Katy Perry says that Heather's singing made her feel "dead inside," yet during the performance, she's motioning to her arm to show off her goosebumps... That doesn't sound like someone who was currently feeling "dead inside." Quite the opposite, actually. It all boils down to what Katy said in the beginning--that she didn't want the girl to sing it better than her. She meant that. And Heather *did* sing it better. Blew Katy Perry out of the water, in fact. Katy knew that, and knew everyone else watching would know that, so she had to throw shade on this wonderfully talented human being (possibly one of the best, if not the best, voices I've ever heard) in order to try and make herself look superior. As if her bitter-ass comments would make anyone forget the incredible voice they just heard... I lost respect for Katy Perry after watching this clip. Not that there's much left after everything she's said in the media over the years. But I *did* have respect for her as an artist. No longer. What a petty thing to do. Heather, you freaking KILLED IT, girl. 🔥🔥🔥
I don't get everyone?? Katy was obviously right, doing a run in every line makes it uncomfortable to listen to, some songs would be better with runs but this song doesn't need that, it justs need a calming voice, Katy was totally right
I prefer her version of the song. There was more soul and her rendition is personal to her. She needs help with her technique but her control was great for her age. Katy’s comments could have been made better.
Yaaaas! Now that’s how you do a cover of a song! Especially when it’s in front of the artist who originally sings/wrote the song. Do ya thang gurl! Yayuh!!!! 👏👏👏👏
What a compliment coming from Lionel Richie. He’s a musical legend and has been in the industry a lot longer than any of them so to say he’s never in his life witnessed a voice that has total control, that’d be such an honor to receive that compliment!
She did great! The only people that hate runs are those who can't do it. Sooo...even if she didn't make American Idol she would be a star. Reminds me of Jojo.
While I think she is absolutely talented!!! I kinda have to agree with Katy, for me it felt a little too much for me too. But still this girl has an amazing voice.
Let’s be Honest this young lady NAILED IT!!!! AUDITION not PERFORMANCE so YES!!! Do RUNS.! Show your Pitch and Your Range and from what I heard How many Octaves can she reach? The Judges knew what was up? It was said in the beginning when, She started playing, Those Mature Chords! So they suspected what was coming behind it! Did l detect a little SHADE! And DID!!!! But Heather took the criticism graciously and gratefully!!!! Hats off ! She was very humble!!!!!
Her voice is beautiful. Runs can go too far, and can't be the meat of the song. You can't have all great. Your potential will be seen by your rises and falls. You can have runs, but don't make the song all runs. She has an amazing voice. They just wanted her to showcase her strengths.
What people fail to realize is this is an audition and not a performance. She's showcasing her full range and skill.
I guess, but she was signed to syco records when she was 10 by none other than SIMON COWELL. Sooooo

Their job is to literally judge singing, she was very talented, but she did have things that could be improved, they were just making her aware of that and giving her advice so chill 😑
Heather’s version was incredible!! Sounds like she put an R&B or Jazzy twist to Katy’s song. I like this version of the song best.
It reminded me of the 90s slow jams
I agree this version is so 90s RnB. It's amazing. What a talent.
Definitely added some soul to the song

Was about to say that too. Felt she was being disrespectful constantly talking over her and not letting her get started with the audition

Damm no wonder everyone watching the voice now lol this girl was amazing. It’s different. She shouldn’t change it.
She is amazing , they use to all that, she killed it
I heard about this video and came to watch and didn’t even realize until she sang that I already follow her on TikTok! She’s sooo talented
A Star in the making...
I really want to listen to her sing a christmas song.
That was insanely good.
Let’s be Honest this young lady NAILED IT!!!! AUDITION not PERFORMANCE so YES!!! Do RUNS.! Show your Pitch and Your Range and from what I heard How many Octaves can she reach? The Judges knew what was up? It was said in the beginning when, She started playing, Those Mature Chords! So they suspected what was coming behind it! Did l detect a little SHADE! And DID!!!! But Heather took the criticism graciously and gratefully!!!! Hats off ! She was very humble!!!!!
Goosebumps
Her voice is beautiful. Runs can go too far, and can't be the meat of the song. You can't have all great. Your potential will be seen by your rises and falls. You can have runs, but don't make the song all runs. She has an amazing voice. They just wanted her to showcase her strengths.
Way better than the original
Listen to her Smile Album pls❤
